Napco Security Alarm

The Gemini GEM-X255 hybrid panel is our largest control panel, and the biggest in the industry with up to 255 fully programmable hardwire/wireless zones and 195 individual user codes. The X255 follows in the footsteps of our dependable Gemini panel product line offering top quality and flexible programming with its Windows-based PCD-WINDOWS software. And the X255 is compatible with the same Gemini wireless and peripherals used with other Gemini panels, and proven superior in independent tests. The Gemini X255 starts with 8 on-board zones and is expandable through Gemini EZM expansion modules or Gemini wireless points. Built on the platform of the field-proven, popular GEM-P9600 and P3200, the product features both familiarity and support of the consumer-friendly GEM-RP1CAE2 custom alphanumeric keypad, too. The X255 uniquely offers fuseless maintenance-free operation, plus it features 8 independent area partitions, 255 event scheduler, and 800 event log. The X255 also supports 2-wire and 4-wire smoke detectors, and supports up to 64 separately addressable X-10 devices with the GEM-X10KIT.
